1:100 000 Geological Compilation Maps Geo-referenced 2 DVD set
Currently unavailable.
These maps are the original series of transparent base maps with geological boundaries & labels in red ink. The 1:100 000 geological bases were then used to compile the 1:250 000 scale published geological maps. The maps have been scanned (hi-res) and geo-referenced, electronic format is Geo-Tiff & ECW files. Note: this series is an incomplete set and covers only portions of Zone 53 and Zone 54. DVD1 – covers Z53, set of 105 1:100 000 geological compilation maps. DVD2 - covers Z53 & 54, set of 48 maps 1:100 000 geological compilation maps.

Complete Geochronology of the Gawler Craton, South Australia - 1970 to 2007 + Data package 16 - GIS DVD
Currently unavailable.
This Bulletin contains geochronological data and interpretations from the Gawler Craton of South Australia that have been completed by Mark Fanning of The Australian National University, by Geological Survey of South Australia personnel, and by industry and university collaborators. The data has been collected over the period 1992 to 2005 by performing Sensitive High-Resolution Ion Microprobe (SHRIMP) analyses of rock samples, using equipment based at the Research School of Earth Sciences, The Australian National University, as part of collaborative research programmes. The geochronology presented in this bulletin builds on the work done throughout the 1970s and early 1980s by Alan Webb and co-workers, who systematically surveyed the crystalline, and in some instances, sedimentary rocks of the Gawler Craton, and other geological provinces of South Australia, using Rb-Sr and K-Ar techniques (Steveson et al., 1971; Webb, 1978; Webb et al., 1982; Webb et al., 1986).

Uranium Prospects of the Southern Curnamona Province and Cover Sequences South Australia
Currently unavailable.
Report Book 2004/22 - Numerous but small uranium prospects occur in the southern Curnamona Province and are described in this report. The source of the uranium mineralisation is related largely to partial melting of originally uranium-enriched Willyama Supergroup sediments and granitoids during the late stages of the Olarian Orogeny. Uranium is concentrated in shear zones, fractures and pegmatites. A regional association with biotite–phlogopite±ilmenite–magnetite is evident. Significant sedimentary uranium accumulations have resulted from erosion of this enriched terrane (e.g. Honeymoon Deposit and Goulds Dam Prospect).
